“Keep working. Keep trying. Keep believing. You still might not make it, but at least you gave it your best shot. If you don’t have calluses on your soul, this isn’t for you. Take up knitting instead.”

David Eddings (1931–2009) American novelist

“The winter will be short, the summer long,
The autumn amber-hued, sunny and hot,
Tasting of cider and of scuppernong;
All seasons sweet, but autumn best of all.
The squirrels in their silver fur will fall
Like falling leaves, like fruit, before your shot.”

“When the X500 revolution comes, your name will be lined against the wall and shot.”

John Gilmore (1955) Internet activist, software programmer and contributor to the GNU project

As quoted in Peter Gutmann's X509 style guide http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/x509guide.txt

“An opinion can be argued with; a conviction is best shot. The logical end of a war of creeds is the final destruction of one, and Salammbo is the classical text-book instance.”

T. E. Lawrence (1888–1935) British archaeologist, military officer, and diplomat

The Evolution of A Revolt (1920)

“You know, even when the material wasn't so good, I've gotten to work with the greats, and I've always given it my best shot.”

Dan Aykroyd (1952) Canadian film actor

As quoted in "I'm still haunted by Belushi" by Sean O'Hagan in The Observer (28 September 2003)
Context: You know, even when the material wasn't so good, I've gotten to work with the greats, and I've always given it my best shot. I'm satisfied with my work. I could stop tomorrow, and if Bright Young Things was my last role, I could say I tidied it up with dignity.

“So why did you get shot? One of your witticisms go awry? (Nekoda)”

Sherrilyn Kenyon (1965) Novelist

“Because you had to be a big shot, didn't you
You had to open up your mouth
You had to be a big shot, didn't you
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
You know what everything's about
You had to have a white hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot last night.”

Billy Joel (1949) American singer-songwriter and pianist

Big Shot.
Song lyrics, 52nd Street (1978)
